    I was down to three possible senders, but Fedex decided to confirm it for me. I'll spend the next couple days reinforcing my porch...I've been bombed by my sender before :flushed:

    Hint 1: shipping not west
    Hint 2: shipping not north
    Hint 3: i saw one of your wants and its an IPA canned early this month, hit the like button if your ok with @azuelke aged IPAs
    Hint 4: my state fish could kick your state fish's ass and @locoformavs state fish's ass and pretty much every state fish's ass for that matter
    Hint 5: I can hit at least one of your recent wants
    Hint 6: The population of your state is higher than the population of mine
    Hint 7: My state is larger than yours
    Hint 8: Your state has already participated in college football
    Hint 9: A badger vs your state colleges' animal would make for a nasty fight.. I think yours would win though.
    Hint 10. Wisconsin just started getting Other Half distro. I don't think your state gets Other Half distro.
    Hint 11. I have shipped you beer before. You have not shipped me beer.

    Normally my sender ends up posting a hint that alludes to my dislike for a certain style. That's pretty much the only way I ever figure out who my sender is. I haven't seen any hint like that yet, so I'm lost lol

    Hint #12 - Target, your box is being shipped tomorrow and will arrive Thursday or Friday. You should prepare your porch. While there won’t actually be an elk on it, it will feel that way.

    Haul Hint - Every day is dark. Your only respite will come on Day 2. That day is still dark... it’s just that there isn’t anything barrel aged that day. Sorry for the liver abuse.

    SWEET!! I'm looking forward to it! The clue about playing in NY threw me off for a while until I thought about the regional games for the NCAA tourney. The last clue I wasn't sure about either. The park near me with an almost funny name I assume is Popp Park (almost Poop Park!), but I wasn't sure what the second part of the clue alludes to. Were you talking about the Headless Horseman? That's like 40 minutes away from me, but it's the only thing I can think of

    According to the map, there’s an Angry Orchard not far from you. Figured all the city folk would come up for apple cider in the basic months.

    Oh, ok, there is an Angry Orchard only about 10 minutes from me. I didn't think about that because I've never been there. I don't care for cider. I have no clue what kind of business they do. The only thing I know about the place is that they were in the news about a year ago because a security guard there refused to believe that a group of black customers hadn't stolen from the gift shop. He was fired and the Angry Orchard had to put out an apology and statement saying that they don't tolerate racism.
